Mexico has legalized drug possession. Perhaps the US will do the same. I keeed, I keeed. But New Hampshire is taking the first steps.

In other NH news, RealID is circling the toilet. Good riddance.

It's hard to be optimistic when the world seems to be racing towards oblivion. Massive amounts of squandered wealth, immeasurable human suffering and death, not to mention ecological destruction, all to ensure that some leaders and their pals have cozy shelters to starve in when the oil wars and economic collapses occur.

But that's the way its always been, growth-stagnation-crisis-collapse-growth, ever since we reached the intellectual level neccesary for civilization. Humans are flawed, yes, not in a spiritual way, but in the fact that we cannot know everything, and cannot truely know others. We all have destructive, egomaniacal tendencies, balanced more or less by tendencies of tolerance, paitence, and respect. All large scale projects are corrupted by the people on the bottom, middle and top.

Still, whatever happens, we seems to work through it. Human dignity, courage, and ingenuity are the true 'gods' that make life worth living. No need of Human Instrumentality or Maromi for me. Yes, those are anime, but they fit my rambling.
